- I should be in Austin, TX, right now at the National Preservation Conference attending the ACHP booth. However, James got his flu shot last Thursday and by Friday night what ever his body had been fighting won and he was down for the count. James gets sick about once a year. And when James gets sick...I get sick. But if I get sick James doesn't get sick. On Monday morning when I was suppose to get on a plane to TX I felt like complete crap and knew I couldn't get on a plane. I spent several hours playing phone and email tag with work while we sent an emergency back-up to take my place. I'm glad that I didn't go because it wasn't healthy, but then again I have the work ethic of a bulldozer so it was hard to make that decision. I have since spent the week on the couch and/or bed napping and watching Netflix instantly on the Wii. Man I love Netflix on the Wii. Oh! And James spent last weekend sleeping and ended up taking two sick days this week. He to is doing better except first thing in the morning when his body is waking up...I can't sleep in...and he is now on antibiotics
- This past weekend we had the boys. With James sick he missed out on attending the Richmond Games, but Joe, Jaime, Lulu, and I made the drive south to meet up with the parents. We had a really nice time. And of course Lulu was loved by one and all. Since I was solo parenting with two boys and a dog I failed to take a single photo. Beautiful weather--it usually rains a biblical amount and is freezing on the weekends of the Richmond Games, so the sunny blue skies was a nice change.
- One of the biggest cases I have been working on since 2007 finally came to a close this past week. Yahoo!!!!!!!
- The lovely new command still apparently can't make up their minds on where they would like to be based. The debate between Fort Belvoir and Fort Meade has arising once again like a blasted Phoenix. Can't they just decide and let me live in VA!!!????
- At the beginning of October we had Halloween craft day with the boys. The big project was a spooky front bush decoration:
The boys made a giant spider from a milk jug, pipe insulation, and black duct tape. Love you Family Fun!
- And lastly, Lulu graduated from Beginner Education this month. And will be starting Intermediate Education next month. She looked pretty cute in the cap!
I've written this before and I will write it again. I will do better about keep up to date with this blog!
